Async-First Social Auction Marketplace

An async-first social auction marketplace — the energy of Whatnot without having to go live to be seen. AI-fast listing, scheduled auction drops, and a social follow-feed let everyday sellers build an audience and run real auctions without performing on camera. Live across web, admin, and a native mobile app with card, PayPal, and non-custodial crypto payments.

Key Features

Format fluidity: timed auction, Buy-It-Now, and Make-Offer coexist on one listing with anti-snipe extension
Software-generated energy: scheduled drops, seller stores, a social follow-feed, and 12 realtime notification types
Multi-seller cart + broad payment rails: Stripe (Connect/Tax/Billing), PayPal, non-custodial BTC + EVM (5 chains)
Optional live shows on self-hosted LiveKit with in-room lot bidding — live or async is the seller's choice
Software-only trust & safety: Stripe Connect KYC, payout holds, disputes without chargebacks, seller strikes
NestJS API (57 models, 236 route handlers), 278 tests; ~6.3% blended take with Free / Pro / Elite seller tiers
